What is the Norrona Men's Falketind Gore-Tex Paclite Jacket?

The Norrona Falketind Gore-Tex Paclite Jacket is your ultimate shield against the elements, designed for the adventurous spirit. Whether mountaineering, trekking, or ski touring, this jacket is your all-year ally. It offers excellent protection without compromising on breathability or comfort.

What is it made of?

This jacket is made from a fabric called GORE-TEX Paclite Plus. It's super soft and lightweight (only 75 grams per square meter).

The fabric is also tough as it has tiny reinforcements to stop rips, and it's made from recycled nylon, which lessens bad environmental impact.

Even though it's thin and easy to pack, it's still strong and durable. Plus, it comes with a Gore-Tex, GORE-TEX waterproof membrane, which ensures you stay dry even in wet conditions. This membrane also provides protection from cold winds and excellent breathability, meaning that moisture vapour from sweat can escape from inside the jacket, keeping you comfortable during physical activities.

The jacket also features printed dots on the back, designed with a 3D function. These dots maintain a slight gap between the fabric and your body, enhancing comfort and breathability. Additionally, they create increased friction and a resilient, non-adhesive interior, ensuring a more pleasant wearing experience and preventing any uncomfortable sticking.

Features:

This jacket comes with a Helmet-Compatible Hood: This hood is designed to fit under your helmet. With convenient one-handed adjustments, it stays securely in place, keeping you protected and focused on your outdoor pursuits.

The cuffs and bottom hem of the jacket have Velcro straps and elastic bands, allowing you to customise the fit according to your preferences. This helps keep out wind, rain, and snow, ensuring you stay warmer and drier.

Need to stash some essentials or cool down during intense activities? The jacket comes with a handy zippered chest pocket for your keys, phone, or snacks. Plus, the front chest ventilation zippers let you control airflow, keeping you comfortable on the move.

The jacket's design includes a Y-shaped cut and articulated arms, meaning it's tailored to move with your body. This design is handy when climbing or reaching for holds, ensuring total freedom of movement without feeling restricted.

The jacket has a longer back, providing extra coverage and protection, especially when bending over or sitting down. This feature keeps your lower back warm and dry, even in wet or snowy conditions.

No more irritating chafing, especially when you're wearing a backpack. The jacket is cleverly constructed without shoulder seams, minimising friction and discomfort, so you can focus on enjoying your outdoor adventures without any distractions.

For best performance:

With any new waterproof, we advise you to wash the product with the appropriate tech wash and reapply a fresh DWR to activate the technology and achieve the best performance from day one.

How does waterproof technology work?

Modern waterproof technology often uses a waterproof membrane sandwiched between layers of fabric and a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) on the outer material.

What is 'wetting out', and how does it affect my waterproof?

DWRs commonly get worn down from contact, whether with your backpack or your fingertips. When the DWR wears down, your waterproof product may begin to 'wet out', meaning the water stops beading off the surface and starts to soak in instead.

While the waterproof membrane will prevent the jacket from leaking or water from getting inside, when your jacket wets out, moisture (from sweat or condensation) can build up on the interior, causing it to feel moist.

There's a common misconception that, when this happens, the product is faulty because people believe the waterproof membrane is leaking. However, this is most likely not the case; you simply need to clean your jacket and reapply the DWR.

The easiest way to spot when this is happening is to see if water beads off the material's surface or soaks in.

PFC/PFAS usage in modern waterproof and DWR technology

Most modern DWR technology avoids the use of PFCs/PFAS chemicals.

PFC-free means perfluorinated chemical-free. Companies such as Gore-Tex® are also beginning to eliminate these harmful chemicals in their waterproof membranes with technology like Gore-Tex® ePE.

What are PFC/PFAS chemicals?

Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are also known as forever chemicals and cause environmental harm, similar to PFAS.

PFAS means per- or poly-fluorinated alkyl; these are a group of industrial chemicals that also cause detrimental harm to the environment, often through product and garment manufacture.

These chemicals can't break down, so once they reach nature (usually via factory water waste), they stay in the ecosystem and contaminate living organisms, working their way up the food chain. PFAS and PFCs are suspected carcinogens and have been known to affect mammal reproduction and hormone production. Therefore, many leading brands in the outdoor industry are now prioritising cutting out the use of these chemicals entirely to contribute to a more responsible manufacturing process.

How to care for a new waterproof product

PFC/PFAS-free waterproof products still perform effectively. However, they will require more frequent care (washing and reapplying a DWR) to ensure consistency.
